actually when prince did it, it wasn't just for fun, or to get more attention from the media, he did it because of his beef with Warner Brothers. And yes when he did it, it was okay because he had a purpose, does Bey have one? Not really, just for more unwanted attention.


It WAS to get more media attention. He was trying to draw attention to what was going on with him and WB. He already knew that the name change thing wouldn't work beforehand. It was a silly gesture at best. The story he made up afterwards was to save face and fans believe him. He sounded like a kook with that "I have another person living inside of me and I don't know if its male or female" bullshit. Only fans would tolerate such ludicrousness. Dude was full of sh*t and his name change was no less of a gimmick than any other artist. Creative? yes. But it was also a gimmick.

Beyonce would like to be known as "Sasha Fierce"

10/23/2008 1:00 PM, Reuters


Just like the "Seinfeld" episode where George wanted everyone to call him "T-Bone," Beyonce Knowles would like to be known by a bold new name.

The R&B singer has christened herself "Sasha Fierce" for her new double album, "I Am ... Sasha Fierce," due in U.S. stores on November 18, and has released a lengthy justification for the comical moniker.

"I have someone else that takes over when it's time for me to work and when I'm on stage, this alter ego that I've created that kind of protects me and who I really am," the former Destiny's Child frontwoman said in a statement.

"Sasha Fierce is the fun, more sensual, more aggressive, more outspoken side and more glamorous side that comes out when I'm working and when I'm on the stage."

Additionally, she has set up a cryptic MySpace page (http://www.myspace.com/sashafierce) that gives a "lucky person" the opportunity to receive a personal message and a gift bag valued at $500.

As George found out, nicknames usually do not work when they are self-bestowed. His colleagues thought he should be called Koko the monkey. In real life, rapper Eminem had better luck with his alter ego "Slim Shady," which he said came to him while he was on the toilet.

Beyonce released her previous solo album, "B'Day," to coincide with her 25th birthday in September 2006. It debuted at No. 1 on the U.S. pop chart and yielded the No. 1 single "Irreplaceable."

"I Am ... Sasha Fierce" will be distributed by Columbia Records.

Okay, the downward spiral begins. We know this will not end well. (See: Prince to prince )


"Fierce is MY word, bitch!"


Maybe Sasha Fierce can hook up with Prince's Camile and do a collaboration of some kind. wink
